ABSTRACT

This study, Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SMEs) in Nigeria: Problems
and Prospects, was undertaken to find out if the SME sub-sector in Nigeria has
performed its critical role of driving the country’s industrial transformation and
development as it has done in other developed countries; and if not, why, and
also to identify remedial measures.
The study thus investigated the performance of the Small and Medium
Enterprises sub-sector of the Nigerian economy, its problems and prospects
and recommended measures to make the sub-sector virile and vibrant in order to play the crucial role it is expected to play.
